Primary/Secondary System piping
Circulator zoning –
(Shown with optional DHW piping)
See Figure 64.
1. This configuration is for circulator-zoned systems using a
boiler loop connected as a secondary circuit off of a primary
system loop. Systems zoned with circulators must pipe the
boiler loop as a secondary circuit as show.
2. Install a separate circulator (supplied by installer) for each zone
capable of delivering the proper flow and head as shown.
Expansion Tank required
1. Provide a system expansion tank following the guidelines
on page 50 or 51.
2. DO NOT use a closed-type tank if connecting to a water
heater that is equipped with an automatic vent.
Domestic Hot Water (DHW) tank, if used
1.
DHW direct connection—Pipe from the near-boiler piping
to the DHW tank's boiler connections as shown.
2. DHW as zone— A DHW tank can be connected as a zone
if a DHW tank is NOT already connected to the boiler. See
notices on page 149 to ensure compliance with the 2007
Energy Act. See Control section in this manual, page 84 to
change TARGET MODULATION SENSOR to System Supply
when system sensors are installed.
3. DHW Priority operation— Using Priority 1 for DHW
(default) will turn off lower priorities during DHW calls. The
MAX ON TIME setting can be adjusted to limit how long
this occurs. Use Priority 2 or 3 for DHW if DHW priority
is not desired. For Combi models use INPUT2/PRIORITY
2 for the Indirect DHW systems.
Overriding the Outdoor Reset function by setting
control to DHW mode when system is intended
for space heating may violate Section 303 of the
2007 Energy Act. See page 149 for compliance
information and exemptions.
Controlling the circulators
1. The Control, for Heat only models, can control up to five
circulators (boiler circulator and four others.) For Combi
models, the control can control up to three circulators (boiler
circulator and two others.) Refer to Field wiring, beginning
on page 58, for instructions on wiring to circulators.
2. The factory default settings are not configured. Each input
correlates to its respective circulator output. For DHW

Circulator zoning plus optional DHW piping
Priority applications, wire aquastat to Input 1 and assign to Priority
1. See Field wiring instructions, beginning on page 58, for details.
For Combi models use INPUT2/PRIORITY 2 for the Indirect
DHW systems.
3.
For more than 4-zones (Heat only models) or 2-zones (Combi
only models), use an external zone controller.
